PROVERB, WIT & WISDOM
Berman, Louis
Putnam/Perigee (November 1996)

PROVERB, WIT & WISDOM is the first modern book on proverbs arranged by theme. Covering some 1,500 core or key proverbs and an additional 10,000 or so variants, witticisms, parodies and derivatives based on them, PROVERB, WIT & WISDOM is a mine of American folk and literary wit and wisdom. Grouping all related proverbs under a single heading, supported by a topical index, makes finding any proverb a cinch. The depth of the compilation insures that few, if any, widely used proverbial phrases will not be quickly located in its pages.
